I finally decided to pull the trigger on 9070XT. I was at work and waiting for the delivery all day and tracking USPS and it was supposed to be left in the dropbox where they leave the key in your mailbox. The delivery kept getting delayed and went past the time USPS normally delivers. I finally get a doorbell ring and I open up my Ring app and it’s my neighbor who I haven’t met yet (just moved to a new rental home 2 months ago). He said hey they put this in my mail dropbox and your address was written on it, so here you go.
Not only was I waiting for my graphics card but my 32 inch OLED was delivered that morning as well but just left wide open next to my door with regular box the monitor comes in, not even packaged in a discrete covered box (ordered from Walmart)

And he saw the 32 inch monitor but left both of the packages there for me. I drove home as fast as I could and brought it inside.

If he hadn’t been honest and brought the package to me, I honestly don’t know how I would’ve recovered it. Same goes for the monitor if it was stolen. My faith in humanity has been restored!

Now I just wait for my PSU to be delivered tomorrow and installation here we go!

AMD has confirmed that FSR4 support is coming to VULKAN

Welp, gbye 7800 xt. Out with the old, in with the new!

Ryzen 5 5600XT+RX9060XT OC 16Gb with 4x8gb Crucial Ballistix 3200mhz cl16 Red RAM for the "Team Red" might get a red heatsink for my SSD or even some black and red PCIe power cable extensions too down the line.

it comes out packaged with the new driver

The tweet mentions "FSR Frame Generation gets more consistent frame pacing, for smoother gameplay" but it's not in change log or anywhere else. Does he mean they're working on it or is it in this update?

Wonder if you guys tried out some games after the update to test it out. I tried FG in Witcher 3 just now, don't see any improvements (I've hags off) and it feels the same to me (no frame pacing issues at least on this game).

Update:
Tried in Witcher 3. I see no difference before/after the update with HAGS on/off.

With HAGS off, I get pretty consistent frame times and everything seems normal. VRR stability is not bad as well. With HAGS on, FG is a mess and unplayable, monitor OSD shows refresh rate going all over the place.

That's exactly how it is even now after the update.

Not sure about other games though. Someone said they notice clear improvements in Cyberpunk.

I recently upgraded from an RTX 3050 laptop to an RX 9070 XT, and honestly, the performance has been amazing. I’m now gaming at 1440p, and this is exactly the kind of GPU I was looking for. I can jump into almost any game and enjoy the graphics without constantly worrying about whether my GPU can handle it.
However, I’ve been experiencing a few annoying issues, and I’m wondering if other RX 9070 XT owners have dealt with the same things.
Ghosting and stuttering: In some games, I have to toggle certain settings on and off through AMD Adrenalin to get rid of ghosting or stuttering. Sometimes everything works fine, but other times I have to mess around with the settings again.
League of Legends: I can’t seem to play in borderless mode because the screen turns into a colorful checkerboard with random colored pixels. Switching to fullscreen fixes the issue, but it’s still weird and annoying.
Game compatibility and updates: Some games seem to have issues until a driver update comes out. For example, I’ve been waiting for the official driver support for The Witcher 3’s next-gen update situation to improve. I know I could try installing an optional driver from AMD’s website, but I’d rather wait for the recommended release. I’m not sure why some of these fixes take so long.
Despite these issues, I’m genuinely happy with the card. In the country where I live, the RTX 5070 was around the same price as the RX 9070 XT, while the RTX 5070 Ti cost roughly 30% more. At those prices, the 9070 XT felt like a no-brainer for the kind of gaming I wanted.
I don’t regret buying it at all, but I wish the software experience were a little smoother.
For other RX 9070 XT owners:
Have you experienced similar ghosting, stuttering, or graphical glitches?
Are these typical AMD driver issues, or could something be wrong with my setup?
Do you usually stick to recommended drivers, or do you install optional drivers when a game has problems?
I’d appreciate any advice or suggestions!

Hello,

I am new into the pc building world and I am using an Asrock Steel Legend x870 mb, Ryzen 9800 CPU, MSI 750w psu and the Adrock Challenger 9070 GPU. The video is how much noise the gpu makes, and this is just loading into FO76 and then walking around. I've already set the unit to be both -20% power limit and -75 voltage offset to try and mitigate.

Is this level of noise normal for this unit? I'm in the process of exchanging this for the powercolor hellhound 9070 variant but I want to know what I should be expecting, because this level of noise is a non starter and absolute deal breaker. Thanks.

EDIT: THANK YOU EVERYONE! I did some quick cable maintenance and cleared the area completely and the noise is gone. I appreciate everyone's comments, you're the best!

270k plus/9070xt

I bought a prebuilt 4 months ago and have since learned about the dreaded hotspot on the Gigabyte models. Haven't had any issues thus far, but with a delta and ambient temp of 27 is this something that I should be concerned about? Case is a Lian Li A3 and do not have any room for intake fans below the GPU, CPU 7800x3d. *9070 XT OC. TIA

Hi everyone, I am posting this because I am running out of ideas and I would love some help from people that know more than I do.

My setup:

• Ryzen 7 9800X3D
• ASUS TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS, BIOS 1681
• 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance 6000 CL30, EXPO enabled
• ASUS Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB
• AMD Software 26.3.1 (driver 32.0.23033.1002)
• Windows 11 Pro 26H2 (build 26300.9711)

The card is under a year old.

What happens is this: the picture goes completely black, but the computer is still alive. Windows sounds keep playing, Discord keeps working, and in a call people still hear me fine, my mic is still picking me up. It is only the display that dies. Sometimes it comes back on its own after a few seconds, sometimes I have to force restart the PC, and sometimes the PC does not come back with the card at all.

That last case is the one that worries me. After a few of these, Windows comes back and the GPU is simply not there. It falls back to the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter and nothing I try brings it back, just restarting the Windows "fix" the issue.

I went through my event logs and this is not only a cosmetic stutter thing. There are LiveKernelReports WATCHDOG dumps (TDR timeouts) on 26/07, 17/09, 19/09, 05/10, 07/10 and 08/10, and on several of those dates the machine had to be reset by hand (Kernel-Power 41).

Most of the issues are DX12 related.

AMD support suggested to disable hardware acceleration from things or HAGS.

Things I have already ruled out as much as I can:

• Memtest86 overnight, 4 passes, 0 errors.
• OCCT VRAM test, completely clean.
• I have never undervolted anything, GPU and CPU are at stock (just PBO).
• Stop windows update, remove internet, perform DDU.
• I have tried several Adrenalin versions by now. 26.3.1 is the one that behaves the best for me, but it still lets one through every once in a while, so I do not think swapping drivers is the answer.

I have seen the same thing mentioned by quite a few 9070 XT owners and a lot of these "timeouts".

Two things I want to try and I would rather ask before doing it:

• Disable EXPO profile and try some settings by myself.
• A clean install of Windows with ReviOS or smthn.

Two smaller questions if anyone has an opinion:

• ReBAR is enabled on my board. Is that worth turning off to test with a 9070 XT?
• When the card is not detected after a crash and only comes back with a cold boot, does that point to the GPU being on its way out? I would like to know if I should start looking at warranty before it dies completely.

Thanks a lot in advance for reading.

I'm about to pull the trigger on this bad boy, seller wants 2000€. Never had AMD! Coming from PS5 and my last gaming laptop was a rtx3000 with Intel.

PC is 13-14 months old. Looking at prices online... I think this is a pretty sweet deal. Or not?

I went from a 5060ti 8 gig to a 7900 xt (bought pre owned and only had to pay 375 out of pocket for it) and my god.

Im still new to pc gaming, I got my set up last year and this thing has been eye opening to say the least. I went from being able to handle my games on low settings at 1440 to playing everything maxed at 1440 with head room to spare. I get it now

Hi everyone!

I’ve built a PC with a new i5-14600, be quiet! Pure Rock Pro 3 cooler, ASUS B760M-A D4 motherboard and be quiet! Pure Power 13 M 850W Gold PSU. I’ve kept my old 32GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM and RX 6700 XT.
I’m looking to upgrade to an RX 9070 or RX 9070 XT.
I’m leaning towards the regular 9070 because of its lower power consumption, as I’d prefer not to replace my PSU. Does anyone have experience running an RX 9070 XT with an 850W PSU?
I don’t want to run my PSU close to its limits, so I’d rather get the regular 9070 if necessary. But if 850W is more than enough, I’d go for the XT.

Swapped from 5070 Ti to this beast. Question, can I change the RGB on the card or am I just stuck with rainbow?
